N-nevermind!

10 rolls!

Sin is giving out slips with Privaty's figure on them. Perhaps this portends a future alt or skin for our favorite tsundere?

Three weeks for a one-part event that falls apart halfway through is the very definition of half-baked. Combine that with forcing one of the worst squads into it, and I'm not too pleased.
At least Privaty did make an appearance and Mast does get lovey-dovey.

I don't play any of the games listed in the contest, but I actually like the BA art I see around so I'm throwing my post here.

Ayane is love!

Aoi always seems so sad, I want to make her happy!

Mobile games in a nutshell.

Well shit. I didn't think we'd ever see hear the day.

Congratulations!

The hello kitty collab almost makes me want to dust off my old account.

Holy moly...

They made plenty of good designs for this event but sadly only released three of them. It was kind of a waste. I hope they'll release more in following reruns

Improbable, but I'm sure we'll see more idol content of other students later.

(Business card of both Nexon Games and DynamisOne)

Three major reasons of our departure:

Dissatisfaction with the business department, contract, global business, etc. of Nexon. We could've done better that that.¹ From time to time, Nexon would pick up a random-ass company for us to partner up, and we couldn't decline that suggestion.

Dissatisfaction with the publisher. Yostar vetoed our Volume 2 story for being "unreasonable". Troubles with translation, and character interpretations that deviate from ours, etc.

Dissatisfaction with the company. Nexon has generous incentives only for 3 years after the initial launch.

Said incentives drop dramatically after the first three years. This is the reason that keeps "hit game devteam" moving around with brand new games.

BA is the outlier here, as it's revenue keeps increasing. However, now that it has been 3 years after launch, the incentives are bound to decline.

Then there's project VK, not really sure if it's a shit post or what.

I heard the staff had some creative difference with nexon, that they wanted more freedom to do what they wanted with the story, but of course more money, and walked off when they got neither. It was implied project KV would continue the story of BA in one form or another.

But then others say they already started working on the game in their spare time, that they were planning on quitting anyway, and waited until they had something to work with and show off. Which needless to say creates some legal/contract issues if they worked on this while still employed. The amount of stuff they showed off plus the quality of the content they unveiled makes it seem like this was probably the case.

Either way, Blue Archive will likely die because of this. The creative driving force behind the game is gone and almost certainly isn't coming back. The franchise will continue, but it'll be in name only.

This sums a lot of it up.

This stings, just a bit. Part of me was hoping these would go on forever, even I knew they couldn't.

The art is a little doppy but this channel has some neat fan animations.

Thankfully, I have never played any mobage, so I have zero regrets.

Kinda regret wasting my time trying to like Magia Record. I wanted to play because I loved the original story but everything about it felt kind of cheap and nonsensical storywise. But I also liked the spinoff manga before Magia Record and I think Bebe is cute, so maybe I am just a hypocrite who hates change.
There's also Revue Starlight, I was having fun with the English server until this banner where I used all my free gems and got nothing to show for it in return. Fuck you Revue Starlight

A wise decision, really.

Same, although I was [i]really[/i\ tempted to download D4DJ after how much I liked the show. But I realized I never use my phone anyway so didn't bother. There were a few d4dj tracks for webosu which I tried out of curiosity, but I didn't like that you needed to move the mouse around...

I'm not sure if I'd say I regret it, but the upcoming release of the EN Uma Musume does make me wonder if the time I dumped into the JP version wasn't wasted.
